Description

1884 $1 PR67 Cameo NGC. Electric-blue, purple, and russet patina makes occasional visits to the borders of this Superb Gem proof, yielding to soft golden-brown over the remaining surfaces. Exquisitely struck, including sharp delineation in the hair over Liberty's ear and on the eagle's breast feathers. Impeccably preserved, with strong field-motif contrast. Business strikes of the 1884 are common, but a mere 875 proofs were struck. This was a substantial drop from the 1879 to 1883 proof production, since the Trade dollar was no longer part of the set. Census: 8 in 67 Cameo, 2 finer (6/09).
